So every non-PSCSI backend device becomes part of default_lu_gp + default_tg_pt_gp and automatically shows up in EVPD=0x83, without user needing to do any additional configuration. Here's what the output looks like: root@haakon3:/usr/src/target-pending.git# sg_inq -Hi /dev/sdb VPD INQUIRY: Device Identification page <SNIP> Designation descriptor number 3, descriptor length: 8 transport: Serial Attached SCSI Protocol (SPL-2) designator_type: Relative target port, code_set: Binary associated with the target port designator header(hex): 61 94 00 04 designator: 00 00 00 00 02 .... Designation descriptor number 4, descriptor length: 8 transport: Serial Attached SCSI Protocol (SPL-2) designator_type: Target port group, code_set: Binary associated with the target port designator header(hex): 61 95 00 04 designator: 00 00 00 00 00 ....

Serguei, can you confirm with 'sg_inq -Hi /dev/sdX' output on your side with the v3.10 based target..? AFAICT the parsing in scsi_vpd_tpg_id() from commit a8aa3978 looks correct too. Hannes, any ideas..? ��.n��������+%������w��{.n�����{������ܨ}���Ơz�j:+v�����w����ޙ��&�)ߡ�a����z�ޗ���ݢj��w�f
